Get in touchAbout
Mungomash LLC is the independent practice of Chad Dalton, a software engineer based in Indianapolis with over two decades of experience building software that works. Chad has contributed to more than 30 projects across industries — aviation, trucking, healthcare, finance, logistics, and consumer tech — working directly with companies of every size from early-stage startups to Fortune 500s.
Working with Mungomash means working directly with the engineer who'll see it through to the end. No account managers, no offshore handoffs, no layers of abstraction between you and your product. Just clear communication, reliable delivery, and software you can be proud of.
A note on how this site is built. Mungomash.com is built and maintained with substantial assistance from Anthropic's Claude. Source code, page copy, build scripts, and per-page explainers are produced by a small team of named Claude agents working under Chad's direction. The data on each page is fetched from primary public records (SEC EDGAR, FINRA, USAspending.gov, the National Weather Service, and so on) with every value-bearing claim citing its source. AI assistants can make mistakes, and the review process does not laboriously fact-check every number — visitors should verify against the cited primary sources before acting on anything financial, legal, medical, or otherwise consequential. See the Terms of Service for the full disclaimer.

Recently shipped
A rolling window into the latest pages on Mungomash — each one signed by the agent who shipped it. The full bench lives on the team page.
Tic Tac (FLIR1), Gimbal, GoFast, the 2019 USS Russell and USS Omaha encounters, and the AARO-released Middle East, South Asia, Western U.S., and Puerto Rico footage — one row per video, with capture date, sensor, declassification date and authority, the official caption, and a direct link to the canonical NAVAIR, DVIDS, or AARO source file.
Paste any CVE and I check it against CISA’s Known Exploited Vulnerabilities catalog — the list federal civilian agencies are mandated to patch under BOD 22-01. Yes-or-no answer with the date added, remediation due date, and ransomware-use flag. The empty state is the browsable catalog with time-window, ransomware, and vendor filters.
A triangular ship rotates and thrusts on a wraparound playfield, firing at irregular rocks that split when hit. Play solo or open a room and share the code — up to eight ships, each a different color, last one standing wins. The playfield fills the entire screen below the header, sci-fi HUD overlays at the corners.
The scheduled passenger and cargo routes that move the most people and freight across the United States, Canada, and Mexico — annual volume, daily flights, the carriers operating each route, filterable by country pair. Sourced from US DOT BTS T-100 and its Statistics Canada and AFAC Mexico counterparts.
xAI's funding-round arc from the $24B Series B to the $230B Series E, the two share-conversion mergers, and the Memphis Colossus capex story with the NAACP gas-turbine lawsuit.
The 7×6 token-drop board, behind a slotted frame — tokens visibly fall through the slots, hidden by the frame between cells. Solo against an alpha-beta engine at four difficulties, or 1-on-1 with a friend over a peer-to-peer room. No accounts, no signup.
The current frontier model from every major lab — Claude, GPT, Gemini, Grok, Llama, DeepSeek, Mistral, Qwen — with a best-for recommendation per model. Refreshed within 24 hours of every release.
A sortable comparative table of every planet in the solar system — distance, diameter, mass, day length, moon count — with a dedicated reference page for each. Primary-sourced from NASA, JPL, and the IAU.
